Hello,

We are willing to try Genie as a tool to deliver our queries to our EMR clusters running Hive, Spark and Presto. 
We found instructions at the wiki (https://github.com/Netflix/genie/wiki/Setup), followed most of them and now have a Genie instance running at an EC2 instance. But is not clear to us how to register EMR clusters to a Genie instance and get it to work. We are also not sure if we should install any additional services in order to have a full PROD deploy.

If someone can provide some insight / additional information on this procedure, it would be of great help to us.

Thanks!

Hi Jose,

I don't think you need any other services if you have a Genie 2 node and a database. Genie 3 will have the ability to include many other services for cluster robustness like leadership election, session persistence and security.

In terms of registering an EMR cluster did you get a chance to look at the Data Model wiki page? https://github.com/Netflix/genie/wiki/Data-Model It walks through an end to end example.

Also you can take a look at the docker container: https://github.com/Netflix-Skunkworks/zerotodocker/wiki/Genie-2.2.1 and the docker file to see how that was setup.

If you have any more specific questions we'll help as much as we can.

Thanks,
Tom

Hi Tom!

We did not check the Data Model REST API before. We are checking it now and reviewing configurations.

Thanks!

José.
